4th of July Mantel

Its time again for a new Mantel.  I started a summer mantel but didn’t get it finished. So I figured I would do my 4th of July Mantel and use it for most of the summer. Here are a few features on my Mantel. I decided to go with an Uncle Sam Kind of theme.

Uncle Sam print.  I used the tutorial (Here) to make the print.  My Uncle Sam is 11×14. The little Uncle Sam hat was made from a pattern from The Quilted Fish.  (Here) The Small Fire crackers tutorial is Here.

Simple striped bunting with felt star. I have them stuck to the shelf with poster putty.

Washi Tape Pin wheels. Who needs fancy paper when you have washi and plain paper. 

 I used my 4th of July Printable here for the framed subway art.

So there it is my 4th of July Mantel.  It looks amazing on my shelf.  So fun and Patriotic.  Come back tomorrow or a Tutorial on the Washi Tape Pinwheels.  They are super easy and fun to make in with the kids in your Free Time.  Thanks for visiting.
